Yes, everyone having surgery does indeed get catheterized. You can ask
your surgeon to prescribe a mild antibiotic for a day or two after
surgery to prevent an infection. This does not always work. I
developed a bladder & kidney infection after my c-section and was on IV
antibiotics for 24 hours, (I also had a catheter for 24 hours +).
Normally for such a short period of time, antibiotics would prevent one.
